less stress?

i was thrilled to read that my profession ranks 9/10 of US least stressful jobs.

i have to say... it definitely can be stressful. but, the pros definitely make up for it.

stress:
-dealing with difficult patients
-what do you do when your patient plateaus
-medicare reimbursement and jahco visits
-making sure the documentation is correct
-making sure you CYA

pros:
-making a difference in someone's life
-educating and teaching
-never a dull moment
-always opportunities to learn
-developing therapeutic rapport

i am definitely loving my profession... and not stressed at all!!

Glad you are back - instead of making this a thought journal, like your other blogs - how about a professional journal... ie; cases,,, without names, and how you deal with them... for the help of others in your profession... much more purposeful - and possibly - in the future, profitable! XO
